Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

If you have a fallen tree, or suspect that your tree has been damaged by lightning or a storm, it is a good idea to call a certified tree surgeon. Untrained persons should never attempt to deal with a tree that has fallen because of all the objects that might be under or around it and any live power lines. The tree surgeons have a lot of experience and are able to remove any tree debris properly.

Dealing With Storm Damaged Trees

Even though they’re usually seen as being really durable and everlasting, trees can come to be at risk in adverse weather like strong winds & storms. Violent storms and extreme winds have been known to wipe out trees and tear even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them toppling to the earth, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times following strong winds have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the danger and inconvenience it also can result in expensive restorations.

The most difficult decision following a storm isn’t how to dispose of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s more or less easy. The harder decision is whether any of the trees left standing are salvageable.

Various trees that have been partially harmed in the storm may well pose a future threat and might need to be disassembled and disposed of to avoid putting property & people at risk in several months or years to come.

Some other trees maybe preserved by being trimmed back, with their most affected sections being ‘severed’ much like how an operating surgeon would remove a gangrenous limb. Some other might need to be staked down with guy cables or held up with additional supports up until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on buildings, our tree specialists can be relied upon to take away the injured trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building crews access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the damaged buildings and power cables.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each of these kinds of problem leads to a different prognosis for the trees’ future survival, however making a diagnosis is a job ideally entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more likely to miss a small detail that can separate one verdict from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that signifies that the roots also failed.

There are essentially 6 kinds of storm damage that a tree can not usually stand up to:

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the soil, making the trees crown to come down or sag violently whilst the lower part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree snap beneath the soil, leading to the tree leaning or swaying significantly.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates enough to split, but stays up. This takes place most frequently on trees with very lopsided crowns. The full crown essentially transforms into a weathervane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a many additional effects like opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a very much greater risk to drop despite the fact that it survived the original storm.
